"Engineering was continued on the development of sodium cooled, graphite moderated type reactors. General studies were carried out as well as studies specifically devoted to the following: a. full scale poser-only plant, b. thirty-mega watt pilot plant, the SGR, c. sodium reactor experiment, the SRE. This work consisted of theoretical analysis of various aspects of nuclear performance; economic investigations of different fuel element, cooling system and plant arrangements; and experimental investigations related to the properties of certain materials and to the development of components. Preliminary consideration was given to alternative reactor arrangements employing liquid hydrocarbon moderators and high temperature coolants other than sodium. In addition to a summary of the general design features of the SRD, a program was prepared outlining the proposed use of this installation.

Engine tests were made on a transpiration-cooled blade that was fabricated from an internal load-carrying member with an external surface of wire cloth. After operation in the engine, some damage was noted at the tip region of the trailing edge of the blades. On other sections of the blade, the wire cloth did not appear greatly overheated, and it appeared that satisfactory chordwise temperature distribution was provided by orifices in the blade base.

Report presenting an investigation of four axial-flow single-stage compressors with a hub-tip radius ratio of 0.5 with three objectives related to the ideal symmetrical-velocity-diagram design, the comparison of blade-element turning angle and loss data with cascade data, and the validity of the simplified radial-equilibrium equation. Results regarding the overall performance, blade-element performance, and radial equilibrium considerations are provided.

Report presenting an investigation of the performance of four divergent ejector configurations with shroud-exit to primary-nozzle-exit diameter ratios of 1.2 and 1.3 with minimum-shroud to primary-nozzle-exit diameter ratios of 1.1 and 1.2. A comparison of the performance of conical, cylindrical, and divergent ejectors showed that on the basis of similar design variables each configuration has merit. Results regarding the divergent-ejector performance and comparison of ejectors are provided.
